Thread | Fernandes told to leave by Portuguese manager
at 14:46 28 Aug 2025
MF was told he had to leave and had to play at the top level to be picked for Portugal. That's nice of him isn't it to encourage our players to leave. WS confirmed how difficult it's been, with certain players being told by national managers they have to leave to play at the top level in order to be play for their national team. He also confirmed that Fernandes wanted to leave. [Post edited 28 Aug 14:52]

Thread | Will Still wants forward, attacking football
at 10:17 27 Aug 2025
It's interesting that Will Still, is saying that the pointless, ridiculous passing left and right has to stop. The habit of doing this, is so entrenched. They were brainwashed by Russel Martin. The manager seemingly wants what we want, attacking forward playing football. No more possession based football. Its music to the ears. The proof is always on the pitch, but I am willing to give this manager a chance to implement the type of football he wants and what the majority of us want.
Will he be supported by the owners and board, with quality players? Over to you Sport Republic. I won't hold my breath.

Pleased this is done. Now let's get one or two decent attacking players in for 20 million plus, and hopefully keep Fernandes. |

Thread | The promoted sides
at 22:32 18 Aug 2025
It's quite interesting that Sunderland and Leeds, both promoted clubs, both won. Sunderland have spent big. Leeds have a manager who will have learnt from the last time he managed and failed in the PL. They are also huge clubs roared on by big crowds. Burnley look like they will come straight back down. It's early days, and all 3 might yet all go down, but is there some learning there if we go back up? [Post edited 18 Aug 22:33]

Saints are in talks with Coventry for this guy. I don't know about lot about him but he sounds like a great signing.
He is a playmaker, 24 years old, having played 43 times for Coventry last season and scored 9 goals from midfield, with lots of assists. He previously played for Huddersfield, again in the Championship. He's viewed as Coventry's best player by most fans, whi are desperate for him not to be sold.
So he has decent Championship experience. He scores goals and he creates chances. He knows this league. Not too young, but has plenty of time too to get even better. Apparently Coventry want 15 million plus, which is fair enough. Get it done Saints and stop fussing about with inexperienced players from across the globe. This is the sort of signing, that I would applaud and welcome. But will we do it?
WS said last night in a sarcastic, frustrated but hopefully tone "Hopefully we get a few players in this week, but I have been saying for this for a while now, I know!" In other words, get me the players we need. I hope they for once support this manager with the proper resources he needs. [Post edited 13 Aug 14:00]

Thread | Long Away Treks Up North
at 15:56 11 Aug 2025
Hull City is the first of many long treks up north for us. Ticket prices are decent, really good in fact £4 for kids and £16 for over 65's.
https://www.southamptonfc.com/en/hull-city-v-southampton
We then go to Sheffield United away on a Tuesday night.
How many we will sell do you think? Hull will sell out, Sheff Utd won't I would imagine. We then play Derby and Bristol City, both will be very popular before a long trek up to Blackburn. Who is planning on going to these? Never been to Hull, but do fancy it. Coaches are approx £50 each, trains are probably more. It's an expensive day, even with the cheap ticket prices.

Thread | Last time we won, when losing on 90 mins
at 22:47 9 Aug 2025
The only game I remember winning, when 1 down on 90 minutes was Newcastle at the Dell. We were one nil down going into injury time, but came back and won 3 1 that evening. That was a great night at the Dell. A few last minute winners when drawing but can't remember any others when losing on 90 minutes? |

Thread | Matty Fernandes Great Attitude
at 15:18 8 Aug 2025
When the fans sang his name for 40 minutes non-stop, Leicester away, we were spot in. Matty is in the squad Saturday and has said that he wants to play for Saints and give everything he has got. "But he's there. He's confident. He wants to be here." Will Still confirmed. Every time I have watched him play, he gives his all, runs around, gives everything for the team. What a great attitude for such a young player. Look and learn sulky Dibling.
https://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/25376203.fernandes-available-face-wrexham-stil
And then you have 3 very arrogant players, who won't be in the squad at all Saturday. With the transfer window still open, Still confirmed that three players won’t feature while their futures remain uncertain.
“A few players are where they’re at in their career in terms of making choices. Tyler [Dibling] won’t be there, Sam [Edozie] won’t be there and Joe Aribo won’t be in the squad either.”
They must think they are so much better than what they are. Compare with Fernandes, who in my opinion is our best player. Humble and modest. Good on him. The others can rot in the reserves or hopefully be sold. [Post edited 8 Aug 15:28]

Martin Tyler is the guest this week, and they talk about many games at The Dell he commentated on. Clips from the cup final too. Lots of chat about the season. It's a good watch, if you like reliving memories from the past!

Thread | Bazunu will be our number one
at 13:30 29 Jul 2025
The owners spent what was it, something like 15 million on him? We decided he wasn't good enough and brought in Ramsdale. They want to claw that money back by making him our number one. It's not Spors, it's not Will Still, it's the owners saying that he has to play. Nothing will change with these owners. I will keep saying it! It's all about SR making profits, not about the fans' enjoyment. [Post edited 29 Jul 13:31]

Thread | Ticketing - Away allocation?
at 23:47 7 Jul 2025
Does anyone know what the ticketing situation will be at St Mary's next season?
Wrexham and Stoke games are on sale, category a and b, so there will be different categories this season I assume. Are we giving 3000 tickets to away fans this season? No way Stoke, for example, will bring anywhere near that. Quite a few games this season, the away fans won't bring 3000. Can our new away section be segregated and made smaller and sell tickets to home fans in what is normally the away section, does anyone know?
This brings me to that Pompey game. How many will they give us at Fratton? I would imagine no more than 2000. I hope we don't give them more than they give us, being that we only need to give 2300 odd tickets in the championship. |
